Full Synthetic
Many car manufacturers now insist on full synthetic oil. If so, you need to protect your vehicle with just the right engine oil, and exactly the right specification.
Many car manufacturers now insist on the latest specification full synthetic oil, which you must use at every oil change in order to protect your warranty and enable your engine to perform at its best. Manufacturers of high-performance European cars have been recommending full synthetic motor oils for well over a decade. Many of these manufacturers, including Audi, Volkswagen, Jaguar Land Rover and Aston Martin, which the Pennarol Full Synthetic range meets.
Pennarol Full Synthetic also meets the specifications required by BMW and Mercedes Benz. That’s because Pennarol engineers work to create the strongest possible motor oils, engineered specifically for the surface types and tolerances found within these engines. In addition to meeting the manufacturers’ recommendations, full synthetic oils offer benefits like extended drain intervals, better performance in high operating temperatures and enhanced protection for engines under the extreme stress of towing. That’s why every engine will benefit from full synthetic oil, even if your vehicle’s manufacturer doesn’t yet insist on it.
Semi Synthetic
Semi Synthetic motor oils provide a balance between the economy offered by conventional oil and the superior performance of full synthetic oil.
Among the leading Semi synthetic oils, you can choose between 5W-30 Dexos-1, 10W-30 and 10W-40 which provides superior protection against the build-up of sludge, and 20W-50 High Kilometre, which is engineered for vehicles with over 100,000 kilometres on the odometer, which don’t require a full synthetic.
Gear Oils
Our high-performance gear oils protect against wear, prolong gear life and help to deliver optimum gear performance.
To increase productivity, many commercial operations rely on more frequent and prolonged high-load operation of commercial vehicles and equipment. The resulting thermal stress created in gear boxes can present challenges for the lubricant in the areas of performance, fuel economy and durability. Pennarol gear lubricants are formulated to meet or exceed the highest industry standards so they can help you to overcome these real-world challenges.
We have engineered our gear oils to offer these performance benefits:
- Thermal Stability
- Wear Protection
- Seal Compatibility
- Hydrolytic Stability
- Clean Parts
The importance of axle lubricants
Car axle lubricant has always played an essential part in maintaining reliability and longevity. But rear axle fluids are more important than ever, in an era of heavier cars with more complex transmissions and differentials.
Pennarol is the axle oil of choice for many leading car and transmission workshops, ensuring that when you choose Pennarol axle oils, your rear axle will perform as the manufacturer intended, reducing the chance of handling issues or expensive repair bills.
ATF Fluids
Engineered to exceed expectations.
Automatic transmissions are now more complex than ever, placing ever-greater demands on auto transmission fluids. In fact, the automatic transmission is perhaps the most complicated mechanical component in an automobile. The automatic transmission combines electrical & mechanical systems, hydraulics and computer processors to smoothly shift through the gears and transfer engine power to the drive wheels.
There are 3 basic types of automatic transmissions found throughout the world. The Dual Clutch Transmission (or DCT), the Continuously Variable Transmission (or CVT) and the step- type transmission, which is the most common, especially here in Australia. There are several main components that make up the step-type transmission. The pump supplies pressurized transmission fluid for many uses throughout the unit. The planetary gear sets provide the chosen gear ratios for the vehicle. Clutches or “clutch packs” engage and disengage the gear sets. The Torque Converter connects the transmission to the engine and multiplies the torque during initial acceleration. It uses two turbines which spin independently, but which are fluid coupled allowing the engine to idle while the engine is stopped and produce smoother acceleration as it shifts through the gears. Finally, the Mechatronics is the “brain” of the
transmission, a complex system of ports, valves and electronics that control all transmission functions.
The one component of the entire system that’s critical to all of these parts working properly together is the Automatic Transmission Fluid, or ATF. It acts as a hydraulic fluid, to engage clutch packs & shift the gears. It acts as a corrosion inhibitor and wear protection for the Planetary Gear sets. It has to flow easily from minus 40 degrees Fahrenheit to nearly 400, even in fine valve assemblies. The ATF precisely controls friction in the clutch packs and maintains it throughout the drain interval … which is perhaps the most important property of an ATF all while providing lubrication to hundreds of moving parts even under high temperatures and extreme pressure. So using the right ATF is critical to the performance and long life of your transmission.
THE PENNAROL ATF RANGE CONTAINS A BROAD RANGE OF AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION FLUIDS ENGINEERED TO PROTECT CRITICAL TRANSMISSION COMPONENTS, INCLUDING PRODUCTS THAT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF GENARAL MOTORS, FORD AND CHRYSLER AS WELL AS FLUIDS THAT MEET THE JASO REQUIREMENTS OF POPULAR JAPANESE IMPORTS FROM TOYOTA, HONDA AND NISSAN.
Smooth Shift Technology: Several PENNAROL ATF products are formulated with Smooth Shift Technology, which are active control molecules that automatically adjust their friction level under changing pressures and speed – delivering a smoother drive for longer.
